Mark Vesterskov Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 Inspired by the "View from the office" thread, i am pretty curious as to what bags people haul around, and what gear is in it. So, this threads purpose is pretty simple. Show me your bag, give a little description of what it contains, and what type of gigs you normally do. My "bag": The thing is, i have no bag yet. No cart either. So what you see, is what i have, the rest is rented for every gig. Gear list: Sound Devices 442 Sennheiser G3 kit Røde Lavalier Røde NTG-3 AKG K-271 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bag is a Petrol PEGZ-2. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
resonate Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 You could add total weight as well so we can compare :-) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wandering Ear Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 Jack, are those stock Lectrosonics antennas, or aftermarket? The stock antennas I have are color coordinated according to block, I'm curious how you color coordinated your antennas? My average bag is 3 Lectro 411/sm cost-11 combos and a 552, I'm swapping the 552 for a nomad 8 next week. Accompanied by a schoeps cmc6 and a mkh-416 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mark Vesterskov Posted February 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 Great idea with the total weight, Resonate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fieldmixer Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 Jack, what is your Peter Engh power distro unit like? Pic? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The stock antennas I have are color coordinated according to block, I'm curious how you color coordinated your antennas? Those are Remote Audio antennas. The colors of the units has nothing to do with Lectro's block colors - I just color code everthing for my ease to identify transmiter / receiver / and mixer input.

Philip Perkins Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 When you buy a Remote Audio antenna you cut it to length yourself and they give you the full kit of colored tips and bands. You can follow Lectro's color scheme for color/block, or you can get creative with your own scheme. phil p Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jack Norflus Posted February 19, 2012 Report Share Posted February 19, 2012 Jack, what is your Peter Engh power distro unit like? Pic? Its an Hirose 4 pin input with hard wired outputs to feed the 4 receivers, Nomad and the TRX. A basic switch and fuse - nothing fancy. I will post a photo later.

You don't mind the antennae poking in your wrist while mixing? probably not otherwise you would have configured your bag differently.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've never really noticed it. When I first got the bag I wasn't sure how much I'd like having the mixer away from my body. I now am just use to it. And yes my bag is full. I sit as much as I can.

RadoStefanov Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 I might have to go your way. Nomad on front. It has less RF garbage spray from the back. The antennas would not be a problem because i am building an antenna distribution system. I've never really noticed it.
